D., Nov, 23.—The farmer | has never had a ‘square deal in the econdmics of America and this makes it well nigh impossible to give fhe country hey and girl a square deal in the schools, John H. Tigert of Washington, D. C., U. S. Commission- er of Education, declared here today before the North Dakota State Teach- of's’ “Association, ~~ “In spite of the great progress made in the consolidation of schools, two- thirds{of ‘the schools in the United States are one-room schools” Dr. Tig- ert said. “Here are to be found the most incompetent teachers, here are the shortest terms, here is the most meagre equipment and here’the fi- hunckul support is least.” ‘The nation’ has never achievéd its dream of equal opportunity in educa- tion, the féderal commissioner said, | and’ thfs he’ characterized asa tunda- mental problem ‘of the’ republic to- day. in 1898 only a little more than half of the nation’s children were actually in the public schools, he said, and of those-gnly one-out of ten got to high sthoor*anidnot more than-one out of 50..to. college. “fistead of the average American having the fundamentals of a good ed- ucation, ‘the average adult American citizen is only a sixth grader in in- formation and large numbers cannot even read and write the English lan- guage,” Dr. ‘Tigert declared. Two things need to be done in this situation. Commissioner Tigert Said. First, illiteracy’ must be cut off through énforcement of the laws re- quiring boys and girls to be in school‘ in the school years. Then sufficient funds must be obtained to “make it possible for a competent man or wo- man to teach our children and live decently.” Addressing himself to the teacher problem, Dr. Tigert said: “There are at the present time hun- dreds of thousands of teachers in the schools of the United States who are incompetent. The school rooms are no longer empty; as they were during the war, but it has been estimated that not more than one out cf four is really trained for efficient teach- teacher is not more Trader and:countless humbers ‘have never had a high school education, “It is the greatest disgrace that America bears and the deepest insult that has ever been offered to any | childhood that, in.an era of unparal- | leled prosperity in the richest na- | tion that ever existed on the globe, sufficient funds were not available to pay -red.. blooded ,men.and women to'teach the American boys and girls, That was in the period of the war and after but unless the American people realize, in the future, that teachers | must be paid as much and more than artisans, jahitors, delivery boys and scavengers, then Jet no one be sur— prised’ if the Babel of Ignorance should’ eventually destroy the temple of freedom.” A HALF MILLION BUSHELS GRAIN TO BE HANDLED According To Report Of Mr, Gustafson Atlanta, Ga;, Nov. 23,—The U. S. Grain Growers, Inc., is now the larg- est cooperative grain marketing or- ganfzation in’ the world, in point of membership,~bushels of grain to be handled and territory covered, C. H. Gustafson, its president, told the American Farm »Bureau’ Federation here today. This farmer corporation |: wasiformed in Chicag6 Mast April. “1 nye nearly 25600: members in t le west states represent- | ing at least fifty million bushels of | marketable’ grain,” Mr. Gustafson re- ported. “This is more than either one of the two large farmers’ companies in Canada have ever handled in a year. The most that any of these compan— ies have handled in one. year was some forty million bushels. In other and later years they have handled less than half that much. “If the present rate of progress continues the U. S. Grain Growers will have 150,000 members a year from now, representing at least three hundred milion bushels of grain. “There is handled on the Chicago market in one Year an average of about three hundred and twenty-five Million’ bushels, so there is promise of our becoming a real factor in the grain markets of the world.” Any -intention of manipulating prices of the farmers through their own: marketing machinery was vigor- ously disavowed by president Gus- tafson. He said they were -dissatis- fied with present conditions because they believed market prices were ma- | nipulated, und if fartners were .to adopt siiilay practices they “would | deserve all of the public condemra- | tioii that’ woul te’ heaped ‘upon | them.” “83f we deal faitly with ‘consumers, | we shall prosper,” he said. “But if We pervert our organizations to the | Unedaeiat fs ioe Easy” Da ees raat cools.

In addition to the econ- omies resulting from such increased efficiency and decreased payroll, tie administration “expects to exercise such other economies in the manage- ment of the public business as shall greatly reduce the cost of administra- tion and to that extent reduce the tax burden of our people.
